During his time at CVB Financial Corp., D. Linn Wiley was involved in the fluctuating world of stock options and investments. In 2004, he received 62,500 stock options, which had a potential market value of up to $1.6 million at a 10% return rate. His compensation varied quite a bit over his years as CEO, peaking around $1.3 million in 2009, showing a dependency on both bonuses and set salary. When he announced his retirement in 2014, he held significant shares and options, reflecting a strong tie to the company’s success. His earlier years saw solid cash bonuses tied to performance metrics, but things took a downturn with fewer bonuses and stock grants in later years. The journey of his holdings tells a story of ups and downs, showing how closely connected executive performance and shareholder success can be.
